01. Lux E Tenebris - Instrumental ♫

02. Mistress Of Misery - Lyrics:

As the dust settles 
The clouds disperse it still remains a weight forcing down upon us
Crushing our bones 
Always the same glazed eyes and empty stares hollow souls drained of what once was
Those words penetrate my skin like bullets 
A crimson explosion of our unison
Bruises still remain.
Endless days, eyes fixed to the asphalt, the tides drawn in our feet still planted in the sand
The spark ignites, stuck in a revolving door drawn into darkness in disguise, the only saviour that remains

Eyes smudge into the deep pools in which we drown, the repetition makes all attention fade.
The fog clears inner beliefs unveiled, follow us into despair or take the reigns to release us of this pain
The freedom I seek never caught, help soften the blow
The comfort I seek hidden deep from the path I roam
Uncertainty rules over me, my friend, my enemy, leaves me broken and destroyed

Life's design fails me, this beast I've become, the mirror reveals a destroyed soul

Singed edges of ecstasy all that's available to cleanse my mind, still you
draw me in my Mistress of Misery

03. Seas Of Storms - Lyrics:

I hardly recognize the face that's in front of me, you've let this be your plague
It works its way under your skin, the parallel life takes over
Made you it's slave
I read the tales told by lifeless eyes
Look deep through your disguise
We sign our souls away
Bodies transform into ghosts of our new lives
As we dissolve into this regime, how clear it stains these walls
Let blood return to these cold hearts withering away
As time caves in, pulses beat through the death of our hope

Let blood return to these cold hearts withering away
Bodies transform into ghosts of our new lives

I read the tales told by lifeless eyes
Look deep through your disguise

Before we know, were casting eyes over rough seas of storms
Over barren lands, distant fields that can never be roamed
Before we know, were casting eyes over rough seas of storms
Over barren lands, distant fields that can never be roamed

With hands held out, we've lost the touch we crave
Dreaming of the warmth of skin, rebuild integrity (repeat to fade)

04. The Ethereal Darkness - Lyrics:

Society made to destroy souls, bound and gagged silence us all, rewards too small

Watch your plans unfold, lead me to the ledge
Make me walk the path into the sea of endless misery
Lead me blindfolded into the cell where I'll remain evermore

Clip those wings, artificial success, no results, lost souls, tense times shared
You rule supreme, yet you rule not over me
Our precious time spent adding fuel to your raging flame
Accelerate your growth, the power lies in your hands
The rocks fall still, the cliffs erode, no satisfaction found down your road
Resistance felt from this brick wall, it stands strong
Withstand your fire, untouched by your iron claw

Buried alive, I'll work these coffin nails free

Through tinted lenses your sunset will not draw me in, cut the chord, I'll chase this light

The foundations laid beneath me strong hold me high
Stand my ground, reclaim my place, unlike moths drawn to light, avoidance proves it's worth

Glorious this failure, drowning makes the water taste like wine

05. Aurora - Instrumental ♫

06. Scenes Of Extended Peril - Lyrics:

The blind lead the blind, abuse your position
The blood on your hands leaves stains behind
Take their hands, watch them perish, skin and bones, let yourself decay
Your cobbled track turns into a minefield, they'll glorify your faults, archive your every move
Glamourize your demise, spreading this disease
A useless path you chose set your plague across the land
How I'd love to dethrone you and erase that smile across your face
Create a smoky pathway between your eyes

Your cobbled track turns into a minefield, they'll glorify your faults, archive your every move
Your spawn, a wretched child, deny your right to life
Your footprints lasting, deny your right to life

Turn your back on your creator as you punish this world
I hope you choke on guilt, crippled by the weight
This pain will be avenged
You'll all fade away into the blackest night


No longer will you sow your seed upon this land, look through your
blood-red haze and you'll see me

07. Sufferance - Lyrics:

Sift through the rubble, creating a case against this earth
Found in the last place I search
From deep within you force the mirror upon myself
Face my sins, my eyes scratched, blind to this sight
Self-indulgence makes my flesh turn grey, the beauty within, blackened to a darker core
The selfless act brings me into the light, a shell of purity masks the internal decay

I become the demon in my dreams
I become the object of my hate
Soulless, my disposition raped from me
Identity masked by my words

I must remove the mask I wear
I must defeat the demon in my dreams

A second-hand soul dressed in silk to match its peers, playing catch-up to the perfection I adore
Scars under the surface, hidden from them all, they will remain until I reach peace within


I work through this void, search through debris, change frequencies,
reclaim myself

08. Futile Prayers - Lyrics:

A life lived in fear of final judgement, end of days
Grasping on to futile prayers
This paranoia hanging over you
It weeps from every pore
You'll feel it in your every move
Your every step watched over, unreachable freedom

Your saviour yet to show his face
Should he decide my fate?
Conquering the world, a mission so vein

The crisp air pounds my skin
My eyes and senses open in defiance
You're sedated by false promises offering hope
This misery created by your belief
The darkness of this world mists his perfect bliss

Pray for me, pray for me!

Lead the beast to rest, repent his sins
Carry your filth to the heavens, while I cleanse in hell

Conscience my only guidance, my only saviour
Does it take a holy man to rest?
Conscience my only guidance, my only saviour
A thousand souls erased in your name

Lead the beast to rest, repent his sins
Carry your filth to the heavens, while I cleanse in hell

09. The Final Light - Lyrics:

The sun sets this final time
Sparing us these forlorn days
Casting us into the darkness of our hearts
Sparing us these forlorn days

Abandoned lives have become entombed, sparing us these forlorn days
This frozen land no longer home, shards of hope have been erased

10. Treachery - Lyrics:

A cold poison runs through your veins, bathe yourself in your self-made sea of sin
Dig your nails in, pull her tight, a coward's ride
Draw her in to the comfort of a lie
A vulgar sight makes us distance ourselves from you, a gleam in your eye all so proud
This is your secret, a hidden life
Expired twenty years ago, pushing it far too far

This is your only dream, eclipsing your existence to me
The vow you made, cast aside, does not matter anymore
Abandoned in pain
Where your beliefs lie; lost dignity
Clutching at the glimpse of hope, absent from her eyes
An awkward silence this is the seed you chose to sow
Your self portrait painted with your lies

Distant memories of loyal times once served
Legions infest these grounds, searching for their prey
I won't be the one, you'll destroy yourselves
Through scattered ashes, visions of your throne in your eye
Your crown will be reclaimed, dreams will be denied

This is your only dream, eclipsing your existence to me
